Hey guys,

Both my seats heated and cooled functions on my seats do not work. On the diagnostic report, it only says the driver seat climate control module needs to be replaced, but the passenger doesn't work either. Maybe they didnt check it, OR does the car only have 1 module? Or 1 per seat (id imagine so).

I was wondering if these modules are compatible with that of the Jaguar XJ ? From pictures, the unit looks the same, with the same plug inlets.

Anyone with knowledge on this?

 

Hey, I don't imagine this helps, but I wanted to leave you with some input

I have a 2015 XF (x250) with heated and cooled seats. The drive heating and cooling function has gone bad twice separately (4 different dealership visits), and the passenger side cooling has gone bad once

3 out of 5 times, it was a loose connector and the one time it was a bad compressor. I dont recall having the modules changed, just the compressors on both sides. I also had the lumbar air bags replaced on both sides. At one point they used the one from an XJ with the massaging function the did not work at all, although the fitment was the same

So although the parts may appear same, and in your case they may even work (so far it's the same generation (2009 to 2011) or (2012 to 2015)), I don't imagine there would be any issues. Reason I'm specifying the generations is because the infotainment system were different in all three generations of the XF and XJ, which may have an affect on compatibility.

 

The most common issue with the XF cooling/heating seats is that the plastic flex piping cracks and leaks so much that the system turns off to protect itself. Check that flexible plastic piping that is a large right angle and see if it is cracked up. Every time you move in your seat, that piping has to flex, so it's a matter of time before it cracks enough to stop working. You can fix it with duct tape, but make sure the airway isn't compressed and restricting flow when you are done. I had to put something in the piping to keep it open on the inside and not collapsing.
